Talk about an exciting way to open off Storm Alert.

Hmm...I wonder if we see Paul/Alexandra for three hours, Adam/Kristin for three, and Rich/Sharon for two.

And I almost have to take back this post. The Storm Alert opener music is not much different from the regular tropical update opener music. :(

Carl Arredondo, eh? Wow, talk about long time no see. I haven't seen him in eeons. He seemingly fell off the face of the earth after he left TWC!  :D

The desk now appears to be in the EEWC position, and even though Adam did a segment from the "side room" with the LCD screen, the background lights were off, as was the TWC logo on the wall. Apparently that's what that room normally looks like during EEWC?

The rest of the set still appears to be on full lighting mode as opposed to the darkened EEWC mode, though.

SR, you wouldn't happen  to have any of the SA openings, or graphics in HD, would you? :worship:

I have the last 36 hours of coverage in HD; just tell me what you want, and I'll provide. :P

BTW, Adam just took a page out of Sharon's book and suggested that people in some of the affected areas shouldn't head out and about; rather, they should stay indoors and take a load off. :P

Well, the SA open, and a few of the SA graphics? I'd love you. :biggrin:
